Definitions

  • the present invention relates to the use of a smoke condensate for browning and smoking a protein-containing food.
  • the ovens known from EP 1 221 575 and EP 0 558 151 are suitable for the complete or partial cooking of edible products, especially protein containing products, like chicken, hamburgers, cordondian etc..
  • the temperature and humidity can be set such, that during the residence time in the oven, which is dependent on the length and velocity of the conveyor belt, the desired cooking and, if needed, browning is effected.
  • the market has an increasing demand for smoked and/or flavored products. This smoking and/or flavoring is, according to the state of the art carried out after or before the product is cooked, off line in a separate smoking- and/or flavoring house, which is time consuming and requires a lot of space.
  • US 2005/175746 US 2005/175746 A1 discloses methods for inhibiting growth of a microorganism in a food product.
  • the method comprises treating the food product with a derivative of liquid smoke that imparts no smoke flavoring to the food product, whereby growth of a microorganism is inhibited.
  • the production time is reduced and the product has an improved flavor and/or an improved appearance.
  • the risk for the personnel and/or the production facility is reduced due to the inventive oven and/or process. It was surprising and could not have been expected by a person skilled in the art that it is possible to apply a smoking- and/or a flavoring-liquid directly to the oven, without polluting the oven. The smoking- and/or flavoring-liquid is not destroyed in the oven and/or the adsorption of the smoke/flavor to the product is sufficient to achieve the desired taste.
  • the atomization of the smoking- and/or flavoring-liquid leads to a complete evaporation of the smoking- and/or a flavoring-liquid, so that no liquid needs to be gathered and dumped or recycled.
  • the smoking- and/or flavoring-liquid can be dosed very precisely.
  • the exemplary oven for using the smoke condensate comprises at least one chamber, preferably two or more chambers. In each chamber a zone with different heat-transfer-, temperature-, humidity- and/or smoking/flavoring-conditions can be established.
  • the product to be treated is protein-containing food like meat or fish. Alternatively, the product can be a vegetarian product, for example a meat- and/or fish-replacement-product.

  • the humidity of the gas is adjusted by adding steam or for example air with a low humidity.
  • the gas is circulated in the each chamber, preferably separately, preferably by a blower, which extracts the gas out of the chamber at one end and reintroduces the gas at another end. Due to this recirculation, there is a gas-motion in the chamber that improves the heat-transfer from the gas to the product and/or reduces temperature differences in each chamber.
  • the product can be dried and cooked. The drying/cooking can be at least partially simultaneously and/or subsequently.
  • the exemplary oven can be a continuously operating oven trough which the products are continuously moved or a batch-type oven.
  • the product can be dried, before or while it is cooked. Drying means that the weight of the food product is reduced.
